The info in the article at the link below is NOT the standard fare found regarding the title above. I would venture to guess you haven't heard or seen three-fourths of it anywhere. It's truly ground-breaking.
The author, Herman E. Daly, died just recently at 84. He was a giant in Ecological Economics, & pretty much ignored/suppressed by the Establishment. One of the reasons for that: he believed "money" is a public utility, & should not be created out of thin air by private banks (which it is, via fractional reserve banking).
R.I.P., Prof. Daly.
